Hello there.  I can understand your concern.  Phimosis is a condition in which the foreskin cannot be retracted back fully. It can be treated only by surgery by a procedure called circumcision. You need to consult a general surgeon in person for further evaluation and management. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain. Bangalore.
